Nicely Done!!

First of all, I think ecwid cart is fantastic. It is a great choice for a shopping cart on any site. Integration with joomla is also great, the extension works well with the site. If you want to get the full use out of this extension, I would also install the ecwid component.



(Im not sure why it is not in the extensions directory.) All work very well together.

ecwid will take over the world

I must give anything associated with ecwid 5 stars. I too went through many other carts - I didn't find this one because it was in the "e-commerce bridges" category.



So, after being tortured for a couple days by the other carts I found on here I finally found ecwid! It is awesome. Only improvement is to integrate the joomla & ecwid sign in - But if you go to their forums you know they will do this! They are very focused on providing a great product and the support provided (mostly by Eugene) is amazing. I look forward to seeing this company crush the competition.

VERY IMPRESSIVE!

I am growing in my understanding of Joomla, but I tell you... I've tried almost every shopping cart available and had WEIRD problems that I just couldn't fix. For people like me who not only want to offer an easy shopping experience but who also ENJOYS an easy shopping experience, I feel like I struck gold here. I do hope this service grows in popularity. Excellent job, I just don't know what else to say. I would recommend Ecwid to ANYONE who uses Joomla. The potential is unlimited... and the ease of use is well, just ideal. Thank you...

One more thing to be perfect!

This is a nice module in many ways, as a x-cart user for years, I would say ecwid is an excellent invent on the planet, just x-cart has unbreakable position in the standalone shopping cart software market, ecwid will take off too. But one thing to be perfect: it should integrate with joomla's login, otherwise it would be a problem. That is the last step keeping me away from using it developing my new site. Well, it is strange that a joomla module does not share a login with joomla. Ecwid is the only I can see.
Owner's reply: Thank you for the review.
We're planning to add this feature in the future.

Btw, one workaround already exists: http://kb.ecwid.com/Google-Friend-Connect#GoogleFriendConnectandSinglesignon

Excellent

This module should be a popular one. It is really easy to setup and is really complete in the things it supports.

Thanks for creating such a great e-commerce aplication

Great shopping cart!

I have tried several e-commerce solutions for Joomla, e.g. Virtuemart, AMBRA, iJoomla Digistore etc. Each of these components are so heavy and often confusing to use and it takes a lot of time to configure the components. Then I stumbled onto ecwid, and I am so thrilled with it. It is so easy to use and has all the frequently used functions as you expect, when you build an online webshop. They have great support and it looks like they put a lot of effort into the project.

Nice module!

This is a nice module. The best e-commerce app hat I tested yet. The pro is that is lighter and faster than those big components like VM. The reason that I rated good is beacuse its lack of integration with Joomla, a good thing in the next version is to integrate the registration with the joomla site so that when a user register in the store of ecwid it automatically register in the site and vice versa.Once integrated completely with Joomla I think it would be a excellent module.
Owner's reply: Thank you for the review. We already plan to add such a feature in future.

Wow...

This is amazing! I have been looking for a cart to use for at least 2 weeks now. I was using Simple Caddy but hated the limited support, tutorials, and it just lacked class.



At first it was a little hard to start off, just because I didn't realize that I had to create the cart off site. But once I created the Ecwid cart, it was really easy to get going. I haven't used the Paypal API yet, but I am going to configure that later today.



Great product, and I am still shocked that it is free! If you continue to work on this project, and feel the need to charge, I would be more than happy to contribute.

A great solution



Posted on 12 March 2010
I've tried Simple Caddy and Virtuemart and many things in between and everything was either way more complex than I want or didn't have the features I need. This one fits my needs ALMOST perfectly. Once PayPal Standard or Pro payments are functional it will be perfect. Now the only Paypal function available is Express Checkout, which (in the U.S. at least) requires a PayPal account.



They have an active forum with regular input from the developers and a listing of feature requests that can be voted on by users. A GREAT addition to the JED.
Owner's reply: Thank you for the review.

Just a quick note: PayPal Standard will be added in the next major version that will be released in a few weeks.

Easy and Beautiful. Beautifully Easy!

I have to agree with all the other reviews. The feature list is extensive, yet it is VERY simple to use and integrate. Probably the biggest challenge was getting the PayPal API credentials - at least until I saw the 'Instructions' link on the Ecwid page - PayPal's integration guides were NOT helpful!



Even as an external app, it integrates quite well with my Joomla installation, and I am VERY impressed with how it offers everything I need. Considering the fact that Virtuemart is so 'bloated', I don't mind having to login to a separate control panel to manage the store.



Seriously...this thing is AWESOME, and I'm so glad I found it when I did!



Thank you!!!
